Willow Crawford looked at the pot of stew, hesitant to make a wager.

She knew Morgan Ashworth didn’t like Rosalind Rowan, but in the past few days, facing Rosalind’s enthusiastic advances, Morgan seed to waver, distant, giving Rosalind a chance.

What is he trying to do?

Willow Crawford knew there was no possibility between them anymore. In the future, there would be girls better than her by his side, and she would bless him. But this girl being Rosalind Rowan made everything complicated.

At this mont, Rosalind walked out with a thermos cup in hand, "Sister-in-law, I’m leaving now. Wait for my good news."

...

Willow returned to her room, showered, and lay in bed to sleep. She should’ve been tired after a busy day, but she felt no hint of sleepiness.

It was already eleven o’clock, and Rosalind had been out for three hours.

Willow tossed and turned, unsure how much ti had passed when she heard a noise outside the door; Rosalind had returned.

Willow got out of bed, opened the door, and saw Lady Pearl rushing downstairs to grab Rosalind who just got ho, "Rosalind, how did it go? Did Mr. Linden drink the soup you made?"

Rosalind was in good spirits, opening the thermos, "Mommy, look, Mr. Linden drank all the soup I made."

"Really? That’s great!"

"Of course it’s true. Mr. Linden even praised how delicious the soup was. Mommy, with all my years of dating experience, I’ve got a feeling Mr. Linden will be mine soon."

Lady Pearl smiled like a blooming flower; this daughter was her pride, indeed no man could escape her daughter’s charm.

"Mommy, has sister-in-law gone to bed already? I want to tell this good news to her right now."

"Rosalind, are you silly? Willow Crawford is just an outsider. Don’t be so naive and bare your heart to her. She might be secretly jealous of you, even try to sabotage your relationship with Mr. Linden."

"Mommy, why do you keep speaking ill of sister-in-law? Brother had long passed away; this royal family relies on sister-in-law. She’s our relative; we are family!"

"You treat her as family, but she doesn’t see you as family. Earlier, she always thought you and Mr. Linden were incompatible."

"How is that possible? Mommy, don’t make things up!" Rosalind refused to believe it, thinking Willow must support her being with Mr. Linden.

"Rosalind, you must trust Mommy..."

"Mommy, I’m tired, heading upstairs to sleep." Rosalind didn’t want to discuss further, ending the conversation hastily.

Lady Pearl was helpless; Rosalind had adored Willow since childhood. Every ti she criticized Willow, Rosalind would fiercely argue with her for Willow’s sake.

Lady Pearl didn’t want Willow to ruin their mother-daughter bond, so she remained silent.

Willow stood by the door, witnessing everything. She closed the door.

Morgan Ashworth drank the soup made by Rosalind; this was a bad on.

Rosalind was genuinely kind to her, truly regarding her as "sister-in-law." Morgan probably saw this and wanted to use Rosalind to get back at her.

This was just the beginning.

...

Next morning, Willow went downstairs, and at that mont, Minister Alden hurriedly arrived, "Princess, I have urgent matters to report."

Willow walked over, "Minister Alden, what’s the matter?"

Minister Alden lowered his voice, "Princess, I suspect that five years ago, Morgan Ashworth, heir of The rfolk Kingdom, did not actually die; he survived and has now infiltrated our realm."

Willow’s heart sank, realizing her greatest fear had co true.

Morgan Ashworth’s identity was exposed!

Willow’s brow furrowed, "Five years ago, Morgan Ashworth died right in front of ; he couldn’t possibly be alive."

"Princess, we’ve captured a spy from The rfolk Kingdom!"

What?

Willow suddenly sensed sothing ominous, "Where is this spy now? I need to see him imdiately."

...

Minister Alden led Willow to a secret base where she saw the spy from The rfolk Kingdom.

The spy lay on a bed, still unconscious.

"Princess, during the arrest, a gunfight occurred. He was shot, but the doctors have removed the bullet. He’ll regain consciousness within 12 hours."

Willow finally breathed a sigh of relief; fortunately, there was still ti to handle this matter.

"Princess, do you have any recollection of Morgan Ashworth, heir of The rfolk Kingdom?" Minister Alden asked.

"What do you an?"

"According to intelligence reports, this individual is likely lurking among us. I need the Princess to provide his photo and portrait. Then, I can issue a nationwide manhunt. As long as he’s here, we’ll ensure he has no escape!"

Five years ago, Morgan Ashworth died. Everything about him was erased cleanly under the combined powers of Alani and The rfolk Kingdom. But today, this unexpected incident brings turmoil again.

His portrait mustn’t be revealed. He’s currently flaunting that unforgettable handso face while moving freely within the royal family; if exposed, he’d truly be cornered.

"Five years have passed; I was young and don’t clearly rember his appearance," Willow replied.

"No worries, Princess. We’ll wait for the spy to awaken; then we’ll know the true identity of this fad heir from The rfolk Kingdom."

Willow left the secret base, and Una inquired softly, "Princess, what’s going on?"

"In a mont, find a reason to divert Minister Alden’s attention; I want to release the spy inside."

Una was startled, "Princess, have you thought this through? You’re the first princess now. If you get entangled with The rfolk Kingdom, you’ll be deed a national criminal, subject to military tribunal judgnt!"

Five years ago, Willow was the Princess of Alani; concerning Morgan Ashworth, it was her emotional choice.

But now, Willow is the first princess. If her past with Morgan gets exposed, her life will be ruined.

Willow said, "I’ve made up my mind. Just follow orders. Five years ago, I couldn’t protect him; five years later, I won’t let him be hard under my watch."

...

Willow returned to the royal manor, initially planning to grab so docunts and leave, but Lady Pearl called her, "Willow, don’t go yet. Stay for a al; soon, Rosalind will bring Mr. Linden to dine."

What, Morgan Ashworth was coming to the royal manor to dine, and with Rosalind?

Willow hesitated, but Lady Pearl chuckled smugly, "Willow, you didn’t know, did you? Mr. Linden has accepted Rosalind. Rosalind is now his girlfriend; they’re dating."

Morgan Ashworth was officially involved with Rosalind Rowan.

Just then, Rosalind’s voice ca from outside, "Mr. Linden, co in quickly. My mommy and sister-in-law are here. Although it’s your first ti eting them, don’t be nervous. They both really like you."
